Moppie, have you thought of getting a professional building inspector? I think they cost a couple hundred bucks but well worth it. I was too new in the country before realising that there were such services... it would have saved me heaps to know that my fireplace was in condemnedable condition then, and that the roof needed re-surfacing or changed... I could have gottent he owners to do it before going unconditional...
Just my thoughts...
As for being a cultural hole... probably... but I love the 5 minute access to the beach and living in a culturally varied environment... though I find that there is more tolerance from "Kiwis" rather than among migrants themselves... funny that...
